"This World Is Ours To Love"

"This World Is Ours To Love"


Can you hear the cry of humanity
Desperate and in need, a fractured creation
Innocence for sale on every street
Poverty and unbelief
The love is growing colder

Let it not be said of us
We've done each other wrong
By giving up home and doing nothing at all

This world is ours to love
This world is ours to love
Now is our time to stand up
Let heaven shine through us
Revealing like a flood
Mercy come through us the world is ours to love
Whoa

We all know divided house fall
When we stand alone
It doesn't look like love at all
So let us be your hope your hands your feet
To help the least of these
God we know You'll be enough

Oh, though the earth will pass away
Your kingdom will remain
It's here in us now, it's here in us now

This world is ours to love
This world is ours to love
Now is our time to stand up
Let heaven shine through us
Revealing like a flood
Mercy come through us the world is ours to love

Whoa, Whoa, Whoa

So let Your kingdom come
Your will be done
Here in us now

So let Your kingdom come
Your will be done
Here in us now
You're here in us now
You're here in us now
Yeah

This world is ours to love
This world is ours to love
Now is our time to stand up
Let heaven shine through us
Revealing like a flood
Mercy come through us the world is ours to love
Whoa

This world is ours to love
This world is ours to love
Yeah

"Thousand Steps"

"Thousand Steps"


With one eye open I saw her slowing start to stand
Her trembling hands wiped her tears away
She looked so tired and broken
She never lifts her head, she softly says, I can’t make it through another day

I’m as far away from God as I can be
Is there any way that He still loves me
Can He still love me

If there were a thousand steps between you and God
And you could see no way across the great divide
Just take one step towards His loving arms
And He’ll take nine hundred and ninety-nine

He slips into the back door and he straightens up his tie
His bloodshot eyes tell of the night before
He comes here every Sunday, but his life is never changed
He’s played the game but he knows there’s something more

I’m so close but still so far away
I can’t live like this another day
Not another day

If there were a thousand steps between you and God
And you could see no way across the great divide
Just take one step towards His loving arms
And He’ll take nine hundred and ninety-nine

Maybe you think that there’s a place you can go and He won’t be there
He won’t even care
Didn’t you know that there is no depth or height to keep us from
His amazing love

If there were a thousand steps between you and God
And you could see no way across the great divide
Just take one step towards His loving arms
And He’ll take nine hundred and ninety-nine
He’ll take nine hundred and ninety-nine
Nine hundred and ninety-nine
Take one step

"Thunder Road"

"Thunder Road"


Every day I'm faced with decisions
Every day I have to choose
Sometimes it's hard
sometimes it's easy
Sometimes I win
sometimes I lose
But God has placed in me
a way to stay near Him
And if I listen with my heart
I can hear Him
His voice keeps leadin'
me down life's road
like a thunder that's with me
Every step I go

I'm walkin' down thunder road
Following the footsteps
of the one I love
He whispers to my heart
and it thunders in my soul
I'm walkin'
walkin' down thunder road

Anytime I get discouraged
Anytime I start to fall
I don't give up and I don't worry
He's there for me whenever I call
He has placed in me
a way to stay near to Him
And if I listen with my heart
I can hear Him
His voice keeps leadin'
me down life's road
like a thunder that's with me
Every step I go

And when it starts to rain
I just keep on walkin'
When I'm feeling pain
I just keep on walkin'
When the storm wind blow
I just keep on walkin'
And when it's dark and cold
I just keep on walkin'
When I'm feeling alone
I just keep on walkin'
When all my strength is gone
I just keep on walkin'

"Too Wonderful"

"Too Wonderful"


Who else could create the Earth
Put it in place with just a word
Light the sun and moon
Only You

Breathe into a hand of dirt
Form it into hearts that burn for You
Lord, we burn for You

Cause Your love is unsearchable
Your thoughts unexplainable
And still You delight in Your children
Simply singing out to You

You’re too wonderful for words
You’re too wonderful for words
Only You can show us who You are
You’re too wonderful for words

Who that knows a father’s love
Would give away His only Son
For the sake of fools
Only You

And who could take His fallen Son
And bring Him back to life for us
Lord, we know it’s true
Only you

Cause Your love is unsearchable
Your thoughts unexplainable
And still You delight in Your children
Simply singing out to You

You’re too wonderful for words
You’re too wonderful for words
Only You can show us who You are
You’re too wonderful

And we sing out for Your wondrous creation
We sing out for the gift of Your Son
We sing out for the wonder that is Your amazing love for us

"Trophies Of Grace"

"Trophies Of Grace"


We were dead in our sins
Hopelessly bound within
But the One who created us
Brought us to life again
Our deliverance was won
By the blood of His Son
Who was crucified
And though it's hard to believe
Our God could receive
No greater prize

We are trophies of grace
Perfectly placed in the body
Bought with a price
The supreme sacrifice of our Lord
We were wooed by His Spirit
We were won by His love
Exalted with Him to a heavenly place
We are trophies of grace

Let us live unto Him
Trusting His strength alone
Representing our Lord in this world
As we make Him known
And like trophies displayed
Our lives will convey
What His love will do
And we will not be ashamed
To lift up His name
And declare His truth

We are trophies of grace
Perfectly placed in the body
Bought with a price
The supreme sacrifice of our Lord
We were wooed by His Spirit
We were won by His love
Exalted with Him to a heavenly place
I've been exalted to a heavenly place
Exalted with Him to a heavenly place
We are trophies of grace

"Trust His Heart"

"Trust His Heart"


All things work for our good
Though sometimes we can't see how they could
Struggles that break our hearts in two
Sometimes blind us to the truth
Our Father knows what's best for us
His ways are not our own
So when your pathway grows dim
And you just can't see Him
Remember, He's still on the throne

God is too wise to be mistaken
God is too good to be unkind
So when you don't understand
When don't see His plan
When you can't trace His hand
Trust His Heart

He sees the masterplan
He holds our future in His hands
So don't live as those who have no hope
All our hope is found in Him
We walk in present knowledge
But He sees the first and the last
And like a tapestry, He's weaving you and me
To someday be just like Him, oh...

God is too wise to be mistaken
God is too good to be unkind
So when you don't understand
When don't see His plan
When you can't trace His hand
Trust His Heart, oh...

He alone is faithful and true
He alone knows what is best for you, oh...

God is too wise to be mistaken
God is too good to be unkind
(Lord knows He is so kind)
So when you don't understand
When don't see His plan
When you can't trace His hand
Trust His Heart
When you can't trace His hand
Trust His Heart

"Tug O' War"

"Tug O' War"


Tug of, tug of war!

It's a tug o' war
Whoo-hoo...

It's a tug o' war
We're being pulled back and forth
First a little bit less
Then a little bit more
Hey, we're in a fight
The forces of darkness
And the children of the light

Tug of war
Huh!

It's a tug o' war
We're being pulled back and forth
First a little bit less
Then a little bit more
Hey, we're in a fight
The forces of darkness
And the children of the light

Like it or not
The rope is in our hands
We have to be strong
We have to take our stand
No time to turn and walk away
The war is going on
Each and every day

It's a tug o' war
We're being pulled back and forth
First a little bit less
Then a little bit more
(Little bit more)
Hey!

It's a tug o' war
We're being pulled back and forth
First a little bit less
Then a little bit more
Hey, hey, we're in a fight
The forces of darkness
And the children of the light

It's a tug o', tug o', tug o'
Tug o' war
Huh!
It's a tug o', tug o', tug o', tug o', tug o'
It's a tug o' war

We've got to hide
His Word down in our hearts
We've got to take time
Before each new day starts
It's up to us, me and you
Yes, it is
The rope is in our hands
What are we gonna do

It's a tug o' war
We're being pulled back and forth
(Pulled back, pulled back, pulled back)
First a little bit less
Then a little bit more
Hey, we're in a fight
The forces of darkness
And the children of the light

It's a tug o' war
We're being pulled back and forth
(Pulled back, pulled back, pulled back)
First a little bit less
Then a little bit more
(A little bit more)
We're in a fight
The forces of darkness
And the children of the light

It's a tug o' war
Pulled back, pulled back
Hey, we're in a fight
The forces of darkness
And the children of the light

It's a tug o' war
We're being pulled back and forth
(Pulled back, pulled back, pulled back)
First a little bit less
Then a little bit more
(A little bit more)
Hey, we're in a fight
The forces of darkness
And the children of the light
It's a tug o' war

"Turn It Around"

"Turn It Around"


I might be wrong, but I'm feeling
This world is slowing down
It won't be long till were leaving
Without a warning or a sound
Well, it causes me mixed emotions
I'm torn between here and there
I'm glad to know I'll be with You
But sad for those I'll leave here

Turn it around one more time
Turn the world 'round, let it spin
I've got a few friends who still don't know
What You've done for them
Turn it around until they see
Give them more time to understand
One more time, Lord, like You did for me
Turn it around again
Turn the world 'round, Lord
Turn it around

The morning paper is reading
Just like prophecy
And every day, Lord, I'm feeling
More and more urgency
My friends may think that I'm foolish
But that's okay, I don't mind
I'd rather them think I'm crazy
Than to leave them here behind

Turn it around one more time
Turn the world 'round, let it spin
I've got a few friends who still don't know
What You've done for them
Turn it around until they see
Give them more time to understand
One more time, Lord, like You did for me
Turn it around again
Turn the world 'round, Lord
Turn it around

Lord, I want to be with You
I long to see Your face
I just want time to persuade them
Words to say
(Turn it around, turn it around)
Show them the way
(Turn it around, turn it around)

Turn it around one more time
Turn the world 'round, let it spin
I've got a few friends who still don't know
What You've done for them
(Turn it around)
Turn it around until they see
Give them more time to understand
One more time, Lord, like You did for me
Turn it around again

Turn it around one more time
Turn the world 'round, let it spin
I've got a few friends who still don't know
What You've done for them
(What You've done for them)

So please, turn it around
Please, turn it around
Give them more time
Give them more time
Turn it around
Won't you turn it
Won't you turn it around

I might be wrong, but I'm feeling
This world is slowing down

"Turn The World Around"

"Turn The World Around"


I'm burning my candle at both ends
Trying to light the world I'm living in
There's so much to do
And just so little time

Well, I know my God wants me
To be a light of hope and truth
If we're to get His message through
Then we must rise and shine

The world is in a crazy spin
It's headed for a fall
If we will take God's love to them
Then we can change it all

We've got to turn the world around
With the love that we found
Gotta turn the world around
We can turn it upside down
We can turn the world around
With the love that we found
With the love that we found
We can turn the world

I remember oh, so well
All my lonely cries for help
Deep inside myself
I found an empty life

Jesus saw my desperate need
And with His love reached down for me
And I just can't ignore the call to
Go and be His light

The world is in a crazy spin
It's headed for a fall
If we will take God's love to them
Then we can change it all

I will answer heaven's call
Surrender all my life to Jesus
He's the one who paid the price
The sacrifice of love that frees us

"We Wear His Name"

"We Wear His Name"


A little boy hangs his head
and starts to pray
His daddy's gone away
to who knows where
He needs a hand to hold
he needs to hear there's hope
He needs someone to tell him
that Jesus cares
That's wy we're here
We wear His name
The name above all names
We wear His name
In a world
that's lost in hopelessness
We are called to be the light
We wear His name
A troubled man
he cries what have I done
I can't lose my wife and son
Lord help me please
He needs to know there's hope
someone to share the load
Someone to give the love
that sets men free
Someone like you and me
When we see those
in desperate need
How can we pass them by
Let's not forget we represent
The name of Jesus Christ
